In this example we will create sample code to add days or weeks to the date.

Following example show how to do date manipulation in PHP.

<?php
$currentDate = date("Y-m-d");// current date

echo "Current Date: ".$currentDate."<br>";

//Add one Date
$date = strtotime(date("Y-m-d", strtotime($currentDate)) . " +1 day");
echo "Date After adding one day: ".date('l dS \o\f F Y', $date)."<br>";

$date = strtotime(date("Y-m-d", strtotime($currentDate)) . " +1 week");
echo "Date After adding one week: ".date('l dS \o\f F Y', $date)."<br>";

$date = strtotime(date("Y-m-d", strtotime($currentDate)) . " +2 week");
echo "Date After adding 2 weeks : ".date('l dS \o\f F Y', $date)."<br>";

$date = strtotime(date("Y-m-d", strtotime($currentDate)) . " +1 month");
echo "Date After adding one month: ".date('l dS \o\f F Y', $date)."<br>";


$date = strtotime(date("Y-m-d", strtotime($currentDate)) . " +30 days");

echo "Date After adding 30 days: ".date('l dS \o\f F Y', $date)."<br>";

?>


Here is the output of the program:

Current Date: 2009-08-24
Date After adding one day: Tuesday 25th of August 2009
Date After adding one week: Monday 31st of August 2009
Date After adding 2 weeks : Monday 07th of September 2009
Date After adding one month: Thursday 24th of September 2009
